With eyes wide, Wang Jinbao stood in this completely unfamiliar territory, holding his stomach, eyes widened, carefully observing the surroundings.
Summoning Master Ji to accompany him, the majestic Big Yellow Chicken, after absorbing the Tian Dao Mech’s essence during the preliminary competition days ago, a circle of baldness on its neck has now regrown into tender yellow feathers. There’s been a subtle change in the Big Yellow Chicken’s aura.
This change is not only in appearance but also in temperament.
The Big Yellow Chicken seems even more proud.
Before, it was a boastful arrogance hiding inner timidity.
And now, it’s a confident, ethereal arrogance.
“Master Ji…”
Before Wang Jinbao could finish, the Big Yellow Chicken raised its wings, placing them on its beak, and said in a fluctuating tone, “Shh—don’t speak. This Lord’s appearance is reaching a new realm. Junior, don’t disturb this Lord’s exploding beauty.”
Wang Jinbao blinked, pursed his lips, and remained silent.
Hoping for it to help is as futile as hoping for oneself.
Looking around, Wang Jinbao felt somewhat puzzled.
This is a vast mountain range with undulating waves, and at the highest point hangs a blood-red moon. The moon is not in the sky but seated on the mountain’s peak.
Wang Jinbao is at the mountain’s base, looking up to see the body of the blood moon at the highest point.
“Bang, bang, bang, bang!”
Four figures descended to the mountain base, each person separated by no less than a hundred meters.
The four Muses have also arrived.
Meeting rivals, envy is particularly strong.
Just as the four were about to start arguing, a thunderous sound echoed through the sky, making everyone look up.
A quasi-holographic projection appeared in the sky, stabilizing into the image of Emperor Ming Sen, who kindly said, “The one who first touches the blood moon in the first competition area is the winner. Only the top three out of the five will be selected. If there is a tie for the third position, there will be a mech battle to determine the winner. The first round, in the first competition area, begins!”
After announcing the rules, the projection dissipated.
As soon as the voice fell, Qiu Lingtan sat in his mech, took off with a single dive, and the mech sprouted wings, flying into the air.
“Fool.”
Muse sneered, ignoring Qiu Lingtan’s actions, but focused on the path leading to the highest point of the mountain, with a cold and serious expression.
“Master Ji, Qiu Lingtan has set off. Let’s hurry, don’t be late!” Get faster updates on novelping.com.
The Big Yellow Chicken made a “shh” sound again, shaking its head and sighing, “Young people can’t hold back their impatience. This mountain has a star-sea no-fly system, no flying allowed. Just watch him…”
Wang Jinbao looked up and was dumbfounded.
The bright red mech that soared into the sky was pierced by numerous blood-colored moonlight beams, hanging in mid-air, unable to ascend or descend.
Moreover, the blood moon rays piercing the mech were absorbing the blood essence of Qiu Lingtan, the controller inside, replenishing itself.
“How… can this be? Isn’t this a contest? It’s too frightening!”
Wang Jinbao covered his mouth, his face turning pale, heart pounding.
“Master Ji, what should we do?”
The Big Yellow Chicken twirled its chicken feathers at the corner of its mouth, chuckled, and said, “Watch and wait for changes.”
Wang Jinbao was instantly disappointed, furrowing his brows and saying, “Young Master Ji, could it be that you can’t handle it?”
“What can’t I handle? Junior, let me tell you, there’s no flame mountain in this world that your Young Master Ji can’t conquer!” The big yellow chicken remained composed, not displaying any signs of frustration. With a cold and proud expression, it continued, “Let me tell you, Junior, I’ll ascend the peak of the Blood Moon in the most spectacular way and give your audacious face a good poke!”
Wang Jinbao touched his own face and complained, “My face isn’t that big.”

Chapter 035: Young Master Ji is Impressive — Blood Sea Arc (2)
After the trial at the Autumn Spirit Pool, no one dared to program flight for mechs.
Rong Ting, sitting in his mech, took a step forward, embarking on the first journey to ascend the Blood Moon Mountains.
“Whoa—!!”
The light of the Blood Moon instantly poured down the mountains in all directions, transforming into… a sea of blood that irrigated the entire mountain range!
Rong Ting, in his mech, was immediately submerged in the blood sea, rushing back to the mountain base. In a disheveled state, he stood up again and charged up once more.
“Sizzle—Boom!!!”
The maglev cannons on both sides reversed their jets, creating a massive thrust that pushed the mech against the flow!
The force of the blood sea and the thrust of the maglev cannons countered each other. Rong Ting, seeing an opportunity, increased the thrust and quantity of the maglev cannons, pushing himself to progress against the difficult current in this vast sea of blood, advancing three steps and retreating one.
Wang Jinbao, holding onto himself in fear, sighed, “I have to admit, Rong Ting does have some skills. Truly worthy of being the squad leader of the Imperial Army, impressive!”
Muse remained unmoved. His dark eyebrows were thick and long, his eyes beneath them ice-blue, with a cold and stern expression—a truly outstanding beauty.
Even as rivals, Muse’s beauty still made Wang Jinbao feel ashamed of his own appearance, genuinely appreciating it. Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.
However, fate is inexplicable. No matter how beautiful and excellent Muse is, Huang Wuji likes Wang Jinbao. What can be done? No solution!
Among the five, the relatively unfamiliar one was a contestant named “Tong Ge.”
His mech had the appearance of a giant mouse, controlled by Tong Ge in the c*ckpit. The head was lowered, drilling fiercely into the blood sea and then into the mountains beneath, hands hammering toward his own head, pinning the exposed head in the blood sea to the mountain below.
At this moment, only the lower half of the mech was visible above the sea surface, two long legs.
“Spin!”
The two legs spun, creating a spiral force that increased with the speed of rotation. In no time, the mech completely disappeared into the blood sea, drilling into the mountains beneath.
Under the sea surface, a track appeared in the mountains, thudding.
“Earth Tunneling? Huh, this person is quite clever. Unable to resist the force of the blood sea, he thought of the path under the sea. Hmm, quite talented.”
Not commonly seen.
The Young Master Ji, who looked down on everyone, actually started praising someone? Unbelievable.
Wang Jinbao grumbled to the big yellow chicken, “Young Master Ji, look, they’ve all left. Let’s go too. Only the top three will be chosen this time. If we’re late, it’ll be over.”
“Why so anxious? Junior, you’re too frivolous!” The big yellow chicken, with a mocking look, tilted its chicken beak. This appearance truly begged for a beating.
Frivolous?
…
He hold back the fist, touch the stomach, and tells himself not to get angry. Getting angry is not good; it might harm the little baby.
“Cough, cough.”
Seeing that Wang Jinbao was really getting angry, the big yellow chicken softened its tone, pointing its chicken wing towards Muse in the distance, saying:
“Junior, observe; that scoundrel hasn’t moved yet. You see, on grand occasions, the true protagonist is often the one who appears last.
Ideally, one should set out in the most unfavorable situation, at the last moment, turning the tide, surpassing others, seizing the lead, standing at the highest point at the finish line. Imagine the scene – how proud, lofty, and lonely it would be for the skilled master! Tell me, is there any flaw in my words?”
Listening to Master Ji’s description, Wang Jinbao’s earlier anger dissipated quickly. Touched by the scene Master Ji depicted, tears welled up in his eyes, unable to restrain himself.
“No flaws! Master Ji, your words are flawless! Just thinking about it, I’m moved to tears! Master Ji, it was my mistake earlier; I lacked understanding and embarrassed you!”
